Heat-Sink Mounting Brackets

Pentium II and Pentium III processors equipped with heat-sink fins use heat-sink locks fastened to
mounting brackets to secure them to the system board. See Chapter 4, "System Board," for
connector and socket locations.
To replace a heat-sink mounting bracket:
1. Remove the processor module as described previously in "Processor Modules."
2. Two mounting locks on the rear side of the system board secure the mounting bracket.
Remove these locks, and then remove the mounting bracket from the system board.
